Welcome to Tutka Bay Lodge Workshop

Dear Poets and Memoirists,
We're about to spend a long weekend together in one of the most beautiful places in North America! I'm very much looking forward to this workshop, as you are a most eclectic group of poets and writers, and many of you work in more than one genre.
We'll have a lovely weekend of writing, forest exploration, solitude and community (and the food, as some of you may already know) is out of this world.
To enhance our experience, I am developing this blog. The "pages" to your right open onto documents, readings, and exercises we will be doing during our time together. You may want to print this material and bring it with you, and our access to the blog during our Tutka Bay time may be dicey. I intend to leave the blog open after our time together so that we may continue to stay in touch and share our work.
So bring some work with you, and your notebooks and/or laptops and perhaps a flashdrive so we can share work.
This blog will be private and open only to participants and some staff members of the Tutka Bay Lodge, so anything you post here won't be shared with the whole world.

I'll see you on September 3rd!
Best wishes,
Carolyn

“Housekeeping” Details


  If anyone who wants to continue discussions from Tutka Bay on the blog hasn’t discovered this yet, there is a place at the very bottom of the Home page for the blog that says, “Follow by Email,” which allows you to get a daily notification of any new blogposts.
  Does anyone with more blog experience have any tips on how to format your posts to maintain formatting—and more specifically, to maintain original line breaks in poems (to avoid having longer lines broken in ways you weren’t expecting or wanting)?
•  Does anyone know what the screen does that comes up after you hit "Publish" for a new post--the one that says something about sharing on Google+?  Does it publish your post to some larger group, beyond the Tutka Bay Retreat participants?
